It operates within the SSE plc group and is advancing its Net Zero Acceleration Programme to boost installed capacity to 9GW by 2027 and over 16GW by 2032. The company currently runs about 4.5GW of installed capacity across onshore wind, offshore wind, and hydro, with a secured future pipeline of nearly 15GW and a further 13GW in development. Collectively, these assets generate around 10 terawatt-hours of renewable electricity each year, and notable projects include the Dogger Bank offshore wind farm and the Seagreen project. Its workforce is distributed across the UK and Ireland, continental Europe, and Japan, bringing expertise in project design, consenting and stakeholder engagement, procurement, construction, and operations.
